Magnetic torque transfer system

ABSTRACT

A MAGNETIC TORQUE TRANSFER SYSTEM IS DISCLOSED IN WHICH A MAGNETIZED DRIVING MEMBER IS COUPLED TO A MAGNETIZED DRIVEN MEMBER THROUGH MAGNETIC FLUX, WHEREIN THE MEMBERS ARE SEPARATED BY A RELUCTANT SHIELD, AIR GAP, OR BOTH. THE EFFICIENCY OF THE SYSTEM IS GREATLY INCREASED BY PROVIDING LOW RELUCTANCE, TEMPORARILY MAGNETIZABLE ELEMENTS BETWEEN THE MAGNETIZED DRIVING AND DRIVEN MEMBERS, EXTENDING THOUGH THE HIGH RELUCTANCE SHIELD OR AIR GAP. THE EFFICIENCY MAY BE FURTHER INCREASED BY THE USE OF EXCITING COILS ON THE ELEMENTS. THE SYSTEM IS PARTICULARLY USEFULL IN AUTOCLAVES.
